<p><font size=2 face=Verdana><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana'>The
problem we have is that there are many different types of people in our system
that we would like to test for adulthood. For example, we have the client's
spouse (Client.spouse), and the clients children (Client.children), who we also
want to test for adulthood. Do we need to make a different DSL expression for
each case, or is there a way to "genericize" the DSL expression so it
could be used for any person?</span></font><font size=2><span style='font-size:
